Bike— Part 1 Báo cáo

Gợi ý: Be consistent with tense and use a clear topic sentence plus one or two supporting details. Correct grammar: use past tense for childhood and plural forms. Keep it concise (max 5 sentences) and avoid fillers. For example, say you owned bikes, mention who gave them or how you used them, and include a linking word.

Ví dụ: Yes, I had a bicycle when I was a child. In fact, I owned at least two: one I used for riding to school and another I kept for weekend rides with my friends. Because I lived near a park, I rode often to exercise and meet classmates.

Gợi ý: Use full sentences, correct grammar (singular/plural and verb agreement), avoid hesitations, and include specific supporting details with linking words. Explain when and why bikes were popular, then contrast with now if relevant. Be concise and logical.

Ví dụ: Yes, bicycles were very popular in China when I was a child because many families could not afford motor vehicles. As a result, people relied on bikes for commuting to work and school. However, in recent years more people buy cars and electric scooters, so bike usage has decreased in some cities.

× Yes, I have a bike.

✓ Yes, I had a bike.

The examiner asked about the past ('when you were a child'), so the student should use past tense. Using present tense 'have' is inconsistent with the time frame. Use past simple 'had' to match the question's past reference. Suggestion: Pay attention to time markers in questions and match verb tense accordingly.

× I guess I had at least 2 bike.

✓ I guess I had at least two bikes.

The noun 'bike' should be plural when referring to more than one item. Also spell out small numbers in writing if desired. Use 'bikes' to agree in number with '2'. Suggestion: Make nouns plural when the quantity is greater than one.

× Yes, bike is very popular in China, especially in my childhood, uh, period.

✓ Yes, bikes are very popular in China, especially during my childhood.

Use the plural 'bikes' when talking about the category generally. Also 'during my childhood' is the correct prepositional phrase; 'period' is unnecessary. Change 'is' to 'are' to agree with plural subject. Suggestion: Use plural forms and correct prepositions when speaking about general popularity over a period of time.

× It is a time, umm, the people is not that rich, so they couldn't buy vehicles.

✓ It was a time when people were not that rich, so they couldn't buy vehicles.

The sentence describes the past, so verbs should be in past tense: 'was' and 'were'. Also use 'when' to introduce the clause and 'people' is plural so pair with 'were'. Suggestion: Match verb tense to the time frame and ensure subject-verb agreement for plural subjects.

× They just have money to but uh, to buy bicycles.

✓ They only had enough money to buy bicycles.

Use 'had' for past tense and 'enough' to express sufficient money. 'Just' is acceptable but 'only' sounds more natural here. 'But' is a misspelling for 'buy'. Also reorder to 'had enough money to buy' for clarity. Suggestion: Check word choice and spelling ('buy' not 'but') and use correct tense and word order to express ability in the past.
